farm daughter-in-law

Chapter 247

Because He Sheng had already decided to travel far away, and the remaining two acres of rice fields of the He family hadn't been harvested, He Zeng took the initiative and hired a few villagers to help harvest. After the arrangement was over, He Zeng said to his son and wife: It's been a few days since we set off, Asheng, you will bring Xihua back to your father-in-law's house tomorrow morning, so you can tell your in-laws about the trip."

He Sheng had this in mind, so he nodded and said, "We took the little guy there. His grandfather hasn't seen him for a long time. By the way, I came home after working for two days."

This is the case in previous years. When the rice harvest in Xiaxi Village was in full swing, Zhang Xihua's natal Yangxi Village had just started harvesting.The Zhang family's rice field is only about two acres, and it can be collected very quickly. As long as a few people work hard, it can be done in two or three days.

He Zengshi said: "It's right. You should come back after you help with the work." The reason why she proposed to let her son and daughter-in-law go back to Yue's house was because she was afraid that the daughter-in-law would feel uncomfortable and restrained, so she simply let Zhang Xihua go back to her mother's house and call her home. It means to let the parents-in-law and the mother-in-law enlighten Zhang Xihua.

Zhang Xihua didn't make a sound at the side, since her mother-in-law said so, she could only nod her head, in fact, she really missed her parents, as if seeing her parents would relieve the pain and grievance in her heart.

He Zeng is very knowledgeable, there are some things that Zhang Xihua doesn't need to mention, and she has always been willing to take care of every aspect where she can see it.

The next day, after waking up, He Sheng tied his sleeping son with a suspender and carried it behind his back, while Zhang Xihua carried some light objects and followed behind her husband.

The two walked in the dark, and after walking for half an hour, they arrived at the ferry leading to Yangxi Village. At this time, a small boat was parked on the river.

The boatman in charge is an old man.In addition to soliciting customers, these boatmen also make a living by fishing on the river on weekdays. Like this old boatman, he probably set up his nets early in the morning. There are about three or four catties of river fish in the wooden barrels placed in the cabin.

He Sheng beckoned, and the other party slid the boat over.The boatman had a loud voice, and he opened his mouth before approaching and asked, "Which village are you going to?"

He Sheng said: "Yangxi Village."

The boatman looked at the two of them casually, and said casually: "Oh? Two pennies per person. I think you have children with you. Are you going to Yue's house?"

The old boatman quickly parked the boat. He Sheng first helped Zhang Xihua onto the boat, stepped on it neatly, and replied with a smile, "Yes, I got up early in the morning. I happened to meet your boat."

"Old man, I won't say any other big words. If you want to catch up early, you really can only take my boat. I will be here at the beginning of Yinshi every day to guard the boat."

The cabin was narrow, Zhang Xihua and He Sheng sat next to each other, He Sheng untied his son and put him on his lap to let him continue to sleep.Zhang Xihua knew that he was a little seasick, so she held his hand and the two of them supported each other.

As the bed moved forward slowly, the old boatman suddenly sang fisherman's songs with great interest.

Amidst the singing, Zhang Xihua and He Sheng arrived at the destination ferry unknowingly.

"Old man, what are you using the fish for? Can you share some of them and sell them to us?" He Sheng asked after getting off the boat.

Hearing He Sheng said that he wanted to buy fish, the old boatman squinted his eyes, thinking that he was really lucky, and said with a smile: "The left and right are for selling money, and the same goes for you two. They both called this morning. It’s fresh, it’s more tender than pond fish. How much do you think you can get?”

As if to fit the occasion, a fish in the barrel jumped up mischievously, splashing a circle of water.

He Sheng looked at the fish in the bucket, and there were not many. There were only three big fish that were as wide as the palm of your hand, and the rest were small fish, weighing only about four or five catties.

He Sheng said, "Take it all for me."

After listening to the music, the old boatman was in full bloom, and immediately told the price, and wanted to take the bag to put the fish in the bucket.

Zhang Xihua said: "We've got them all, and I hope you can make it cheaper." She worried that her husband was too thin-skinned to bargain, so she quickly expressed her position.

The old boatman laughed loudly and said, "It's definitely a bargain for you. Don't worry, old man, I never deceive people when I do business."

Immediately, he took it and weighed it, five catties and three liang, plus the boat fee, He Sheng paid the old boatman a total of [-] Wen.

This price is definitely not as good as selling it in the town, but it can save a long distance.

Happy business.

After landing on the shore, he still had to climb several hillsides. He Sheng continued to tie his son behind him with a strap, holding Zhang Xihua with one hand and the fish with the other.

The two rested for a while on the way, and after half an hour, they arrived at the entrance of Yangxi Village.Under the big banyan tree at the entrance of the village, some villagers took a rest under the banyan tree with their burdens. With sharp eyes, they spotted He Sheng and his party.

"Hey, isn't this Zhang Dafu's eldest daughter? Are you going back to your mother's house to help at this time?" someone asked.

Zhang Xihua nodded with a smile, saw that the person who made the noise was an aunt named Yi Xia who lived in the middle of the village, and said, "Yes, I came here to help for a few days."

Aunt Xia fanned the wind with her hands, looked at He Sheng, and said with a smile: "Your man is a good-looking man, with handsome features, but his body is not too thick."

He Sheng's face froze for a moment, he took Zhang Xihua's hand and immediately quickened his pace.

"Slow down, slow down, I haven't caught up yet." Zhang Xihua trotted and shouted.

Feeling that his daughter-in-law was struggling to follow, He Sheng slowly put down his steps.

Zhang Xihua smiled: "Haven't you been praised so directly? Look at how embarrassed you are."

He Sheng's face was bright.

Zhang Xihua laughed mercilessly, glanced up and down at He Sheng, and said pointingly: "Then what my aunt said is right, you are not too strong, it seems that you still lack of exercise."

"Xihua...don't join in the fun." There were more than three black lines on He Sheng's forehead, and there were already a bunch of them at this time.

Today's women like a man who is tall and strong, and a man like He Sheng who looks lean and lean, even though he has a good appearance, is not very popular.

However, although my husband is not burly, his physical strength is not bad, and he can see clear muscles when he takes off his clothes.

Even to the touch, it is also hard.

Thinking of this, Zhang Xihua blushed, and immediately stopped the topic.

When the two came to the Zhang family, the Zhang family only left their younger sister He Hua to cook at home, and the rest went to the fields.

When He Hua saw her sister and brother-in-law, she smiled happily and said, "Sister, brother-in-law, why are you back at this time? Brother Yu is still awake? I carried him to bed."

He Hua is already engaged, and Cai and Zhang Dafu have already refused to let her go to the fields. She will be raised at home for half a year, and she will marry with a good mood.
